i 'l Specification of Letters Patent.
Application nea maren-17,4919. smal No. asset?.
To all whom-#may concem Be it known that I, VICTOR V. KQNKEL, a citizen of the United States, residmg at 'Los Angeles, inthe countyof Los Angeles novel features herein of thin sheet metal such as aluminum and slide provided with ahoney comb founda tion having a metallic base in accordance with the principles of my invention.
Fig. 2 is a fragmentary sectional detail as on the line 2-'2 of Fig. l.
Fig. 3 is a fragmentary detail elevation of y a piece of the metallic base of the .honey comb foundation upon an enlargd scale. v
Fig. is a fragmentary sectional detail ason'the line 4 4 of Fig.' 3.
. Fig. 5 is a greatly enlarged fragmentary sectional detail upon the same plane as Fig. -4 with the beeswax covering applied to the metallic base. y
Fig. 6 is a fragmentary diagrammatic edge view showing two foundations placed together back' to back or side by side.
The metallic base 1 is a rectangular piece the sheet is'pressed from both sides to make the honeycomb cell depressions 2 and 3. The supporting wires 4, 5, 6 and 7 are thread..
ed back and forth through the metallic base 1 in parallel longitudinal lines with the ends of the wires extending beyond thfiefjends of the metallic base 1. rlhe metalliebase 1 thus constructed and carrying the wires is coated on both sides with beeswax 8 and 9. The
' wires e, 5', 6 and'Z-may be a single wire threaded back and forth vthrough the me:4
' tallic base and through the'en'd bars 10 and.
' to the desired form, but these'honey comb' foundations are more or less fra'lefand an*- honey 11, or each line of wire may be independent and the ends of thewire attached to the end bars 10 and 11 so as to hold the'honey comb foundation securely in the frame. Heretofore it has been usual to makev a honey comb foundation of beeswax pressed object of my invention is to m e a; comb foundation more durable andk may be renewed from time to time simply-by applying new coatings of beeswax.
In -my honey comb foundation themetallic base 1 makes the foundation strong so that it will' stand indefinitely the extracting process, and so that it is less liable to accidentally injure it; and so -that the coating may be renewed or repaired from time to time as desired.
I-Ieretofore the supporting wires have been embedded into the beeswax and werev very likely to tear loose in the extractingprocess. In my construction the supportin wires are threaded back and forth throug themetallic base 1 and then covered with beeswax, and then the wires are attached to the side bars 10 and 11 to mount the foundation in the'slide.
In forming the metallic base 1 the honey comb cellv depressions 2 and 3 each have this common center' thus forming a hexagon havinxgqthe outer edges 19, 20, 21, 22, 23 and',
24. en seen in side elevation, .as in Fig. 3, the lines 16,17 and 18 are troughs and the lines 19, 20, 21, 22, 2 3 and 2li are eleva` tions. The cells 2 upon one side are stag' gered relative to the cells 3 upon the other side so that the troughs of the first side produce the elevations of the second side, and
the elevations of the vsecond side produce the troughs of the first` side. Forming the depressions of troughs 16, 17 and 18 on one side produces the elevations on the other I Patented nec. 2,1919.
vthree flat faces 12, 13 andlfl, each of said faces being' diamond shape in plan and the three faces meeting at a common center l5 and along lines 16, 17 and 18 radiating from v side to produce a-rim around the hexagon so as to make a good start for the 'honey comb cells. This rim mayextend more'or less 'as is found necessary.
After the metallic b1 has been thuseut and depressed it may be dipped in' melted' beeswax, or coatings of beeswax may be applied to either, or both, faces in any suitable way and to any desired extent. rIhe metallic base 1 may 'be .formed by punch press work, or by runningit'throug forming rollers.
-1 n Figi-:6I have shown a diagram of two honey comb i-"oundations placed together side by side sothatthe bees ma work upon the outer f 'ico aces. 'of each foun ation, this will make va strongerv and heavier construction,
andin this construction onl the outer. faces ch. need be-'finished'to receive t e bee work,
-Various chan 'es may be made without departing from t e spirit of my invention as claimed. I claim:
1. A honeycomb foundation consisting of a metallic base pressed to form honey comb cell depressions with integral rims around the., depressions, supporting wires threaded back and forth through the base, and a covering of beeswax Lappliedto both the base and wires. l i
2. A honey comb foundation having a base made of asheet of metal and having a 4plurality of honey comb cell depressions, each depression having three `sides diamond shape in plan meeting in radial lines, the radial lines being depressed to form grooves on one side and rims on the other side.'
.3. A honey comb foundation having a base made of a sheet of' metal and having a plurality of honey comb cell depressions,
each depression having three sides diamond shape in plan meeting in radial lines, the radial lines being depressed to form grooves on one side and rims on the iother side, and
said honey comb foundation being'covered with a coating of Wax. l
4. A honey comb foundation having a base made of one sheet of metal and forming honey comb cell depressions',with integral rims around the depressions.
5. A honey comb foundation consisting of two bases placed together side by side, each VICTOR v. KUNKEL.
